How We Fall Apart by Katie Zhao

4.0

“How We Fall Apart” is Zhao’s debut YA novel. And what a debut it is. I hadn’t read anything else by Katie Zhao so I didn’t know what to expect. I’m so glad I requested an ARC from NetGalley and was provided one by the publisher (Thank you!).

The novel centers around a murder of the top ranked student at a private high school. When Nancy and her friends become prime targets due to the secret revealing menace known as the Proctor, the story really takes off. Dark academia ensues in this engaging debut.

I finished reading it in a couple of days and I’m looking forward to the next chapter in this story.

I think the story was very interesting. The only thing I wanted was more depth to the big reveal. However, the ending helped pique my interest right back up.

I’d definitely recommend this to others! Hopefully this can be adapted to a TV series
